<< Central Gully
 
Central Rib >>
Two pitches: 4c, 5a. A good way up the gorge. After a classically but technically straight forward first pitch, the route takes the large overhangs direct, leading to a thin unprotected slab above. Make delicate moves taking care not to fall, to the top.

First pitch only, as Jana was somewhat intimitated by the sight of the overhang on the second pitch, so finished up last pitch of Piton Route instead. First pitch of Central Slab is really good VS 4c, a little bold at the start but easy enough climbing & no polish. Oh and somebody chalked up Piton Route like crazy...
